See, I can't stand body piercings and I loathe tattoos but then I went to her website and read some of her stuff and she's actually articulate, thoughtful, and seems to have a good heart. If she could just can the attention whoring she might be a more positive force for good.

Not gonna happen. She's a "total package" scenario. You either take it all or you leave it all.

The hardest thing about being a Commie Leftist Pinko born and raised in Massachusetts is that I look at people like Mo Karnage and the sheer volume of high-end dipshiattery in their Occupy-Forever-HiveMindset and I want nothing more than to see them lose out of sheer principle.

You just want to sit down with them and get it through their skulls that maybe if they weren't such incredible arseholes they'd probably get better results in both the short and long term. They might actually win be being polite, friendly and being willing to work with the system rather than expending their energy with the impossible task of tiring it out. If they really wanted to serve those to whom they say they give a shiat about they'd quit acting like total dicks.

Ah, yes. Anarchists. People who show how well we can live without a government by brawling, rioting, and trashing businesses.

Hey, biatch, instead of keeping the homeless in the park, which I'm sure the people with nearby homes are absolutely thrilled about, how about doing something useful like helping to build homeless shelters?

Her world view is no more childish than any "Libertarian"s.Which, I'll concede, isn't saying much.

MFAWG:All2morrowsparTs: Dahnkster: When your city council starts talking about 'privatizing' public lands... follow the money and prevent privatization at all costs.

Not always, if it is a total privatization yes but there are alot of Public Private partnerships that work well for everyone.

The Presidio Trust is a good example.

Right. Because leaving hundreds of vacant properties vacant in on of the highest demand property markets in the world is really working well.

I'm not really familiar with the Presidio situation, but the thing is, I've seen a similar situation on Cape Cod over the last 40 or so years. Build up all that vacant land...and suddenly you've got traffic jams, pollution, etc, and all that lovely solitude people used to enjoy? Gone.

So people go elsewhere...backwoods Maine, maybe...and more people follow them, and start complaining about the zoning restrictions in the NEW place, because they want apartments and strip malls there, too.

Eh, they're not all brawlers. Some of them are thoughtful and articulate.

My REAL beef with anarchists is none of them can really answer the question of what to do about criminals...or how their ideal ruler-less society would prevent new government structures from forming.

It's kinda like Communism, or some religious utopias...maybe nice in theory, but in practice? not so much.

I asked her why we should trust her collective over the one the council supports. She said hers would be more diverse and less under the thumb of the mayor.

Because when I am concerned over over how public land is going to be used my top two questions are is it going to be run by a diverse group, and will it not answer to a public servant? And if those answers aren't yes I want nothing to do with it.

And don't try and sway me with actual goals of the collective, policies, or exampels of what they had done in the past.

Dorsey had chosen Monday night, after all the nights he had been at council, to sit in the press box reserved for members of the media. Skinner asked him what he was doing there and Chris responded that he posted video reports on Youtube and other social media sites.

It always confuses me when anarchists try to organize. Either they have to put somebody in charge, in which case it's no longer an organization of anarchists, or they stick to their anarchist beliefs, in which case nothing gets organized because nobody's in charge.

Third option, impossible complicated and unweildly decision process that enusres, while "organized", that nothing can actually get done.

You've proven on multiple occasions that you don't know a damn thing about libertarianism and have no intention of educating yourself.
